Alle Jahre wieder, Ihr Kinderlein kommet, O du fröhliche, Süßer die Glocken nie klingen and Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, (Silent Night Holy Night), all well-known traditional German songs, are presented in a new and most tuneful varied medley. Thanks to the cue notes, the passages intended for large band can also be performed by smaller ensembles in a most satisfactory way. The alternative orchestral strengths are clearly indicated in the score. The piece can easily be performed without saxophones and without (French) horns. Of the four percussion parts (timpani, percussion with triangle, rattles and tambourine, drum set and mallets with (tubular bells), the combined percussion is indispensable.
